Construction began in April 2024 on the 110,000-square-foot Grizzly Indoor Practice Facility located on the south end of the River Bowl fields. The facility was completed in the fall 2024.
The Indoor Practice Facility is covered with an inflatable roof that is the first of its kind in the Big Sky Conference. In total, the facility includes a regulation-size synthetic football field, four 150-yard sprint lanes for track athletes and a long-jump pit, a high jump pit, a pole pit and a hammer, javelin, discus and shot-put area for field athletes. The facility also houses winter practices for Grizzly football, soccer and softball teams. As well as rental access for clubs and teams in the Missoula community and visitors passing through!

As part of the project, UM also constructed a permanent structure that will connect to the indoor practice facility that houses a lobby, restrooms, storage rooms, offices, and mechanical space.
The University of Montana is thrilled to have this new facility up and running. It’s a tremendous asset that provides a dedicated space for our student-athletes to train, supports youth in our community, and offers a top-notch venue for anyone interested in renting it!
